[ ... ]

It looks a though all the controls that are meant for page3 have been 
created with the top-level dialog as their parent.  AFAIK this cannot be.
self.page3 is (correctly) a child window of self.note, but the controls to 
be shown inside have to be children of self.page3 .  Putting things into the 
sizers is not enough.

In my own code, I usually define a separate class descended from wx.Panel to 
create a page3 instance with its own sizers, then create one of those with a 
a wx.Notebook instance as a parent, and add it to the notebook:

    def _new_capture_page (self):
        new_trace = TraceWindow (self.tracebook)
        self.tracebook.AddPage (new_trace, 'Capture %d' %              
                (self.capture_serial,), select=True)
        return new_trace


Hope this helps,
